Is there a C team?
The B international cap he got I think was originally meant to be an under 21 international but they allowed some older players in and called it a B team instead. Heskey scored for England B in that match.

It was the game that Peter Taylor was in charge of England for.
Am I right in thinking that was Heskey's first full cap as well?

Just found this on Guppy's Wikipedia page...
"Cristiano Ronaldo of Manchester United is reported to be a great admirer of Steve Guppy and models his style on the winger, having spent his childhood holidays in Burslem, and watched Guppy at Vale Park."
Love it.
As for Scott Sinclair, would be an awesome signing. We'd have 2 good left wingers! Sinclair can play upfront as well and with his pace gives another option. Get him in.

Heskey's debut was againsy Argentina whilst he was still at city. Guppy played half a game on the right whilst KK was in charge. Incidentally, KK had him for several years at Newcastle and didnt rate him, hence his move to Port Vale. Probably the reason why despite the fact England desperatly needed a left winger Guppy never got another look in.

15 mins up the road for me :icon_wink
I'm sure i read that when Guppy made his debut he was told..."Don't mess up" (or something to that effect!) before he went on - talk about inspiring confidence for a lad making his debut!

If he's anything like winger Jackie Sinclair of middle 60's fame...... he'll be great.
The Doogs sidekick was a brilliant little winger and goalscorer
